Looking over the names on this list should excite any sprint fan. Current UF Gator Shayla Sanders set a Gator's school record just this past weekend in the 60m dash. Sanders posted two US#1 times as a senior at Boyd Anderson when she ran 6.85 in the 55m dash and 23.89 for 200 meters in 2012.Gator freshman Sharrika Barnett broke the 400m record in 2015 as a senior at Oak Ridge, while LSU sophomore Daeshon Gordon holds the record in the 55mH as a Boyd Anderson Cobra. Check out the all-time bests in the sprint/hurdle events at the Jimmy Carnes Indoor Meet.

Eleven Floridians headed to the Pacific Northwest to test their skills against the top runners in the country at the 2014 Brooks PR Invitational. After soaking in all Seattle had to offer Thursday and Friday and mingling with other athletes it was down to business when they took to the track on Saturday. After winning the Dream 100 in New York City a week prior, East Ridge's Kaylin Whitney continued to tear up her competition. 

Another piece to the Brooks PR Puzzle is American Heritage sprinter Deja Parrish. Parrish, a Clemson signee, is a six-time 2A  Florida state qualifier in the 200 meter dash. She is the 2013 state champion and has finished second twice. This will be her second trip to Seattle as she was second in the 2013 Brooks PR Invitational. She brings with her a PR of 55.06 in the 400 meter dash to the Brooks PR Invitational on Saturday, June 21st in Seattle. 

Hey ya’ll! Kendall Ellis here with my blog of the week. Last Thursday were regionals and they went very well. I couldn't be more excited. Everything is truly in God’s timing and it was time to PR, a new personal best of 53.09 in the 400 meters. I’m very proud of my STA girls who reign as 2014 Regional Champions and to all those who qualified to state.

The 2014 track and field season is looming with several preseason meets this weekend and the start of the regular season right around the corner. Over the coming days we will take a look at the top ten returners in each event by class. On the girls side, Deanna Hill looks to pick up where she left off in 2013 after winning the 100 meter crown. Deja Parrish has been a mainstay in the 400 meters, can anyone take her down? Daesha Rogers has owned the 800 and 1600 meters since she was a sixth grader, will 2014 be any different?

Hey everyone, it's Denise and I'm back! You know what that means, track season is right around the corner. The first official practice dates are January 7th and January 14th for all the classes. In this moment in time everyone is wondering where all the seniors are going to start the next stage of their careers. South Florida is one of the main recruiting powerhouses in the nation when it comes to track and field. 

When you're a part of four state championship 4x400 meter relay teams and won individual gold in the 400 meters, schools will come calling. That was the case for Plantation American Heritage senior Deja Parrish. In addition to those accolades, Parrish also finished runner-up in the quarter mile two times, and was an integral part of one of the most dominant teams in the state. Over two dozen schools reached out to her throughout the recruiting process. She says it was nice knowing she caught their eyes, the visits were fun, but after several weeks the hard part came of narrowing down the list. Her finalists Tennessee, Arizona State, UCLA, and Clemson. Each program had their own appeal to Parrish.

Lloydricia Cameron brought home a World Youth Trials Championship on day one. She is back at the shot put in day two. Lots of sprinters in action in the 100,200, and 400, as well. MileSplit's David Everett was on hand with amazing photos of day one action and will be there for day two as well! Flrunners will have all the coverage, results, and a complete recap.

As always Florida will bring a strong contingent of athletes to Greensboro, North Carolina and this year's 2013 New Balance Nationals Outdoor will be no different. The event kicks off Friday with the marquee event being the girls and boys 5000m championship and will conclude Sunday. Our MileSplit team will be on hand throughout the weekend with thousands of photos, dozens of video interviews, and up to the minute action and results. Best of luck to all those competing this weekend!

Bob Hayes Invitational is aways hot hot hot. Out of many amazing performances on the day though, the Levonte Whitfield vs Kendal Williams battles in the 100 and 200 are one of the greatest in the meet's storied history. Whitfield gets the 100m in 10.15 to 10.18; Williams edges him out in the 200m 20.63 to 20.65. Both are wind aided, but stunning none the less.
